Several Major Black Ops 7 Collaborations Canceled Due to Player Backlash

Reports indicate Activision originally intended the new Call of Duty to adopt an atmosphere and aesthetic similar to that of Black Ops 6.

In a recent interview, Treyarch’s Senior Production Director Yale Miller explained the studio isn’t pursuing strictly “realistic” cosmetic items for Black Ops 7; instead, they want cosmetics that “make sense for Black Ops 7.” Because of that guiding principle, the team declined several major collaborations with well-known brands.

As an example, he pointed to the mannequin skins from the Nuketown Block Party event — not strictly realistic, but they “feel right for the game.”
